McTominay scored a brace in Napoli's victory over Torino. |
The star of the match was none other than Scott McTominay, who scored a brace in the first half to help the southern Italian team secure all three points. With this result, Napoli took the top spot in the league with 74 points, three points ahead of defending champions Inter Milan with only four rounds remaining in the season.
Napoli started the match with great enthusiasm and quickly took the lead in the 7th minute. Taking advantage of the chaos in the penalty area, McTominay quickly finished from close range, giving the home team an early advantage.
Before the first half ended, the Scottish midfielder continued to make his mark. In the 43rd minute, from a soft cross by Matteo Politano on the right wing, McTominay reacted quickly and finished accurately, doubling Napoli's lead.
In an earlier match a few hours prior, Inter Milan unexpectedly lost 0-1 to AS Roma at their home stadium, Giuseppe Meazza. This defeat allowed Napoli to pull ahead by three points and take control of their own destiny in the title race.
Napoli's consistent form and high morale have made them the strongest contenders for the Scudetto this season. If they maintain their current form, Antonio Conte's team could very well bring the championship back to southern Italy after many years of waiting.
